looks good for your first try...don't feel so bad, I'm terrible at doing it also. the hood looks smooth and nice. btw, what tape did you use?

I used Tamiya Tape. I just sprayed some clear on it, came out amazingly shiny.... These 2 pics are photo shopped if you think they are, these are reflections off of the black hood, as you can see it is super shiny.

Next time try using M3's blue painters masking tape with the 14day hold..it works perfect. I've had tamiya bleed, even with the clear, so since I started using the blue tape even with no clear its awesome. Love the refelction on the hood.

The tamiya way of spraying cf pattern looks cool. You should give it a try next time.
Want to show the car when after applying decals too?

Looks good. I like it. Far as you headlamps...when I did mine, I covered the lenses in grey masking tape trimmed the excess and glued them in.

Great build. About 3M's blue tape you can find it in any Target, Wallmart, Fred Meyer paint section.
